I have studied the human mind and psyche for over a decade now and this one technique I find is the most important by far. Do you consciously breathe throughout your day? Do you even know how to consciously breathe?

I define conscious breathing as ¡¥a deliberate deep breathing inhale, then a short pause followed by a powerful, cleansing exhale, repeated several times.¡¦

There is a power that I cannot explain simply in consciously breathing. The fact that this technique is free, can be done anywhere, by anyone for as long as necessary are just SOME of the benefits.

When we take the time to consciously breathe we are opening ourselves to release. We allow the knowledge of the universe to enter our minds. There is nothing more powerful than the ability to take a step back and BREATHE.

As you begin your day you can consciously breathe while you visualize or create your day (that¡¦s another article all together), you can breathe while in traffic, before making that important decision, before or after your meditation, when stress weighs on you, etc. The ways in which you can USE conscious breathing is truly unlimited.

The more you take the time for these three or four conscious breaths the better results you will get. You may have heard me talk or write in the past about walking on it before you talk on it. Conscious breathing is a large part of walking on it.

When we take a ¡¥time out¡¦ to connect to a quite calm mind, the more fluid and easily the answers we seek come to us. I have truly developed the gift of consciously breathing 10-20 times a day and work
on increasing that every day.

Conscious breathing is so simple and yet profound. As you read this article take a deep breath in, hold it for a second or two and then release anything and everything that is troubling you. Just let it go.

This one act alone will change your life and so rapidly you may be shocked. I encourage you to begin today to take this time for yourself. I also encourage you pass this article along to all that you know. Try this conscious breathing technique for the next seven days. Send me your experiences in an email to Shelby@shelbycollinge.com . I can hardly wait to read your results.

Now take a deep breath and release. ļ

Wishing you abundant success-

Shelby Collinge
